Description
This programme is aimed at those candidates that have a baseline competence in general management, Human Resource management or Learning & Development (L&D) management practices. A minimum of two years’ work experience as supervisor, manager, HR practitioner or trainer is therefore recommended. The programme enables specialisation in the L&D Management and Quality Management role. The programme may also be taken as part of the National Diploma: OD-ETD Practices at NQF SAQA ID 50333.
This skills programme will equip L&D managers and Quality managers to:
- Develop strategic and operational plans for any skills development project, for example, developing a project plan which maps out the objectives, outputs, processes, responsibilities, timeframes and resource requirements for a learning project
- Develop and implement systems, tools and processes for managing the quality of the learnerships, skills programmes or other L&D they aim to deliver
Research nationally and internationally shows that the role of L&D managers has begun to shift, particularly in organisations that face uncertain market conditions.
Staff often need to be able to learn on the job and from the job; they need
multi-skilled, flexible, self-managerial and teamwork competencies. L&D
managers must be able to embed education and training within workplace
processes.
Participants will gain an understanding of project management, the role of L&D in learning organisations and the development and implementation of quality management systems. They will also analyse the management requirements of L&D in their organisations, share their challenges with one another and work together in developing the systems and tools to meet these challenges.
Research nationally and internationally shows that the role of L&D managers has begun to shift, particularly in organisations that face uncertain market conditions.
